  • @ThePlutino go to hell bastard

  • @al1936ful The (so-called) #2

  • @Mymusic, that's true. he was a Nazi and hunted from the Concertgebow. they called the anti-nazi Van Beinum which I love.

  • Incredible footage. Thank you for posting!

  • @ThePlutino Go clean your mouth with soap.

  • That's one of the Leonore Overtures that Bruno Walter is playing.

  • Why did he champion Mahler? He did what was forced on him to keep making music with the orchestra he had conducted for 44 years when the war broke out.

  • Remember, Otto Klemperer and Walter Legge hand-selected the members of the Philharmonia/New Philharmonia Orchestra, and when EMI Ltd. dissolved the Philharmonia, the members were so distraught that Dr. Klemperer put up his own money to keep the orchestra going. The orchestra members were elated with his decision.

    OK also gave whisky and cigarettes to orchestra members he personally liked; thus, he could afford to be grouchy, but the end justifies the means.
